Faculty & Staff Calendar

CU Boulder's official final examination policy enforces a uniform final examination schedule to facilitate fairness and help maximize the educational experience for students.

16-Week Semesters (Fall & Spring)

Reading day, the day after the last day of classes, is reserved for study time. On that day, no class sessions may be held and no graded assignments of any kind may be due.

The five-day final exam period starts the following day. Every undergraduate class is assigned a final exam date, time and location (the location may be in a different location than your class meetings), which posts in Campus Solutions in early October for fall and mid-March for spring. To view your exam dates after they post:

1. Log in to MyCUInfo.
2. On the "Teaching Tools" tab, ensure the correct term is selected in the drop-down menu.
3. Scroll down to the "My Courses" section. Each class' assigned final exam date, time and location will appear in the "Final Exam" column.

Before then, you can look up your exam dates on our final exam schedules page using either the course number (for classes with common final exams) or the class meeting pattern (for all other classes).

Special Sessions (Fall & Spring)

Final exams are typically held during your last regularly scheduled class period. See our Special Session Calendar page for dates.

Summer Sessions

Most summer classes schedule final examinations on the last day of class; however, some classes have examinations at a different time. See the Summer Session calendars for dates.
